What Happened to Countdown?
Countdown is now Woolworths: Woolworths New Zealand has renamed its Countdown supermarkets, a rebrand that began in 2024, and Countdown's loyalty card, Onecard, changed to Everyday Rewards on 1 February 2024. The programme did not end. Everyday Rewards is Woolworths New Zealand's free loyalty programme and is still running, so you keep earning and redeeming points with your Everyday Rewards card. This page explains what the change means for you; the full programme is covered in the Everyday Rewards guide.
What It Means for Your Card
Your card: Onecard changed to Everyday Rewards, so the card to scan is your Everyday Rewards card. It works at Woolworths (the former Countdown stores), FreshChoice, bp, g.a.s., Petstock and MILKRUN.
What you earn: 1 point per $1 spent at grocery and retail partners. At bp and g.a.s.: 1 point per litre plus 1 point per $1 in the shop. That's 0.75% back on groceries.
Points expire: After 18 months of inactivity.
What it costs: Free.
What You Can Do Now
1. Keep Your Everyday Rewards Card Handy
Scan it every time you shop at Woolworths or FreshChoice. Don't have one yet? Register at the Everyday Rewards website in under 3 minutes: the digital card is usable immediately, and a free physical card arrives by post in 7–10 days. Scan your card into SuperCards via screenshot so it's ready at checkout.
2. Scan at the Pump Too
At bp and g.a.s., scanning your card gives you 6 cents per litre off on up to 50 litres, and you still earn 1 point per litre. On a 50-litre fill, that's $3 off plus 50 points.
3. Turn 2,000 Points Into a $15 Voucher
Every 2,000 points gets you a $15 voucher, usable at Woolworths, FreshChoice, bp, g.a.s., Petstock or MILKRUN. You can convert them to 15 Airpoints Dollars or 1,500 Qantas Points instead. Boosts, Member Prices and the best way to use your points are covered in the Everyday Rewards guide.
